Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

The volume and significance of activist campaigns in Australia continues to rise. Motivated activists (both global and domestic) have started to take advantage of the flexible legal tools available to shareholders in Australian companies, and campaigns have become increasingly sophisticated and public. 

This seminar, hosted in conjunction with Gilbert + Tobin, will explore: 

  • the differences between investment and ideological activism;
  • the tools and tactics employed by activists;
  • recent trends in Australia and in the United States;
  • how the post-Royal Commission “atmospherics” and class action litigation may cause companies to think differently in future; and
  • how then to prepare for an activist attack.
